That IRS thing stinks. Supposedly the reason was that tax dodgers were associating themselves with the TP precisely because auditing them would be awkward. That's possible but I'm really rather far from convinced.

I never really understood what was wrong with targeting a group whose acronym stood for "Taxed Enough Already" for extra scrutiny when applying for tax exemption. Also did anyone ever find any malice applied to the keyword list? Seemed like they just told the program to look for certain keywords that would get extra scrutiny, and subsequent reports showed there were all kinds of things on that list including lefty groups.
